Hi Sean, just an update from what I know. We are still waiting for a reply from Microsoft. They're a large company, so understandably, it takes a little while.
For now, if people need to get onto Django 2.2 for long term support (which will last until April, 2022), you can use this package: https://github.com/ESSolutions/django-mssql-backend I've been running it in production for months without incident. Of course, YMMV. If Microsoft and/or the DSF end up wanting to bring support under the Django umbrella, the django-mssql-backend repository is a possible starting point, IMHO. The django-mssql-backend is currently being developed and support for Django 3.0 is being worked on: ESSolutions/django-mssql-backend#18 <https://github.com/ESSolutions/django-mssql-backend/issues/18> Regards, Tim On Monday, December 2, 2019 at 11:03:56 AM UTC-5, Sean Martz wrote: > > Hello, > > It seems like this issue has lost momentum.
